Good grief. If we canโt laugh at ourselves, and at one another, in good spirit and without malice, then what fun can be left?

George TakeiMy father told me, "Don't do anything that would bring shame to the family." I was always mindful of that. When I told him I wanted to pursue a career as an actor, my father said, "Look at what you see on television at the movies, is that what you want to be doing? Do you want to make a life out of that?" And I said, "Daddy, I'm going to change it".
